Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Technological Addictions is a wakeup call alerting the medical community-and society at large--to the addictive potential of technology and to technological addictions as legitimate psychiatric conditions worthy of medical assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. No other book tackles these addictions, individually and collectively, contextualizing them for both mental health professionals and the interested public. Petros Levounis, an authority on addiction who's been an early voice on the intersection of addiction and technology, and James Sherer are uniquely well-suited to the task, and they have recruited an impressive list of contributors who write thoughtfully, eloquently, and authoritatively on their respective topics.

The book examines the underlying psychology of internet addiction and problematic internet use, their comorbidities, psychopathological models, and treatments. - Significantly older when first introduced to the internet, older adults may face unique challenges and vulnerabilities, and this evolving understanding of the role of technology in their lives, both in terms of positive changes and the risk for pathological patterns of use and other potential harms, is explored in-depth. Although written primarily for psychiatrists and other mental healt. …
